Sam Darnold’s first practice is over. All in all not bad if you can get past the three fumbled snaps. Throws a nice, accurate pass, and seems to have a pretty strong arm.

Probably just nervous. New center will take some time to get used to timings.

Potential feasibility of #Sabres dealing O'Reilly, Ristolainen, Reinhart?

“If you’re asking on a scale of 1-10, I would say O’Reilly a 6 or a 7, maybe a 7."


“Ristolainen, I am less convinced,” continued Friedman. “I'd say a 2 or a 3 out of 10. I understand why people say, ‘Oh, they got Dahlin. You can trade Ristolainen.' Sometimes I think that’s too simple."

17 year old Dahlin has as many points in less games as 18 year old Anze Kopitar did in the SHL.

Dahlin ranks 5th in P/GP for U18 skaters in SHL history. That's including forwards.

@BHFHHockey
If Dahlin was a forward, his numbers would be *exceptional* and have him in the conversation as first overall.
Except he's not a forward, he's a blueliner. He's literally the best defender to enter an #NHLDraft EVER and it's not close.

Friedman also says he thinks teams will make it worth buffalo's while. bonus heavy contract makes it tough but thinks the teams interested can handle it

only reason buffalo may change their mind is because botts comes from a team that was 3C's deep, but he does think that botts feels they have to change their group, get better and thats one of the easiest ways to do it.

Friedman said reinhart is a 5 or 6 out of 10(in terms of likely to be moved). He says he doesn't know how they really feel, word out of buffalo was they didn't want to do it too soon (interest early in the year).

Says it may come down to whether they get an offer that makes sense.

If someone like Friedman said this we would all be over the top... he’s going to be good, really good, maybe even fantastic, but it’s going to take some time. The vision of him and jack fly up and down the ice is pretty exciting though. At the very least we should be fun to watch with Casey and Dahlin added to jack.

I honestly don’t see him struggling at all he’s been facing NHL players since age 16 this is going to be a breeze for him imo

A very exciting time for us

I lived in Pittsburgh, I had numerous instances, men and women, where a person said "I don't care what he does as long as he brings us that 7th Super Bowl".

Their fan base might be the absolute worst fan base in all of sports, too.
